Here is a link to the analysis Bill Schertz did on Todd Bartram's
cooling system: http://www.acre-media.org/schertz/EWP_analysis.html
Bill's analysis would indicate that Todd's system was marginally
adequate given the assumptions used. Some were overly conservative, and
Todd has reported better results than would be expected from the
analysis.
Is the 'first approximation', that the cooling air will never get hotter
than the exiting water, a good one?
It would seem to me that if you arranged a multipass radiator such that
it entered in the rear and left at the front, the exiting air would be
closer to the temperature of the radiator's hot side.
